President Obama told his campaign volunteers in Nevada that he is “really proud” of them after comparing them to the U.S. ambassador and embassy staff murdered in Libya.

“And obviously [our] hearts are broken for the families but I wanted to encourage those folks at the State Dept. that they were making a difference,” Obama told volunteer leaders in Las Vegas, according to the pool report. “The sacrifices that our troops and our diplomats make are obviously very different from the challenges that we face here domestically but like them, you guys are Americans who sense that we can do better than we’re doing….I’m just really proud of you.”

I think Obama is complicit in the destruction of our embassies and murder of their employees. He gave the Muslim Brotherhood 1.5 Billion dollars. I think it was an investment in disater so he could look “Presidential”.

It’s what Joseph Goebbles would have done and they have been running his “Big Lie” playbook since 2008..

FU#K OBAMA commented:

Imam Obama, Hillary Clinton and the DNC have the blood of these innocent Americans on their hands. From ignoring the warnings to refusing to allow our Marines to have live ammunition, they are complicent in this tragedy and fully guilty of its outcome.

US Navy Corpseman commented:

The Middle East aflame and our embassies under assault and this incompetent asshat continues to campaign. He doesn’t care about rising unemployment – except HIS.

This cowering, miserable excuse for a POTUS should be impeached in disgrace. I’d personally like to see him tarred and feathered and sent packing like they used to do.
His public cowardice and utter lack of leadership should suffice for a start of proceedings.

Refuses to meet with allies to go on Letterman / doesn’t attend security briefs/ no Cabinet meetings/ sends billions in foreign aid to known terrorist organizations and then INVITES them to WH . I could go on, but just makes me angrier.

Yup, you’re right.

This poor guy is totally unable to stand outside himself and look at the world objectively.

Everything –EVERY SINGLE THING– in his world-view is based on “how it affects me”. Guess that’s why he’s so tone-deaf during moments when he’s supposed to be relating to America-as-a-whole. He just can’t do it.

What a sad, damaged little man.

(For all you good Christian people out there, it might be a lovely thing to pray for him, and for “right-guidance” for him during this period of world crisis. Meanwhile, of course, keep pushing your family & friends to get out the vote for Romney.)

Freedom Fighter commented:

He is H-O-L-L-O-W empty excuse for a man! He shows NO merci for our Border agent, the 13 soldiers GUNNED down, the IRANIANS who were begging America to help them and he did nothing–our Genrals begged for more troops as they were being slaughtered….he is hollow and he did nothing to protect the embassies..and he does nothing now. He is a liar, a fake, and he is a mentally ill narcisstic and Jarrett is too! These people do not know what they are doing and they are making mistakes one after the other–printing moeny, bad policies and bowing to the enemy!

Obama Doctrine: Slashes Military Amidst Islamist Uprising

With the black flag of al Qaeda flying over the American embassy in Tunisia, the murder of the American ambassador in Libya, the storming of the US embassy in Cairo, the burning of the American flag in London, and the torching of American businesses in Lebanon, the Obama administration is focused like a laser on its top priority: slashing defense.

Today, even as the Islamist Uprising spreads across the Muslim world, ranging from Kashmir to Malaysia, from the North Sinai peninsula to the streets of Sudan, the Obama administration released its sequester report, which discussed just how the automatic cuts required under the Budget Control Act of 2011 would play out. In short, the Obama White House would slash defense with a machete. Obama’s Office of Management and Budget admitted as much:

“No amount of planning can mitigate the effect of these cuts. Sequestration is a blunt and indiscriminate instrument. It is not the responsible way for our nation to achieve deficit reduction. The report leaves no question that the sequestration would be deeply destructive to national security, domestic investments and core government functions.”

Can we wait until November for a leader. And who is leading us, anyway. As I see it, Washington truly believes that a movie cause the fires in the Middle East. Our Flag is burned, Embassies are bombed, anything and everything America is being destroyed.

And Americans are being raped and murdered. Who is going to step up to the plate and do something. Obama? I think not. He owns this.

PAPER: U.S. WARNED OF EMBASSY ATTACK BUT DID NOTHING…

The Obama administration is flatly denying a blaring British newspaper report that the U.S. diplomats in Libya were killed as a result of a “continuing security breach,” and that “credible information” about possible attacks had been ignored.

A U.S. official told POLITICO: “There’s no intelligence indicating that the attack in Benghazi was premeditated.”

The newspaper, The Independent, plastered its cover with the headline, “Revealed: inside story of US envoy’s assassination,” and reported inside: “The killings of the US ambassador to Libya and three of his staff were likely to have been the result of a serious and continuing security breach … American officials believe the attack was planned.”

The article continued: “According to senior diplomatic sources, the U.S. State Department had credible information 48 hours before mobs charged the consulate in Benghazi, and the embassy in Cairo, that American missions may be targeted, but no warnings were given for diplomats to go on high alert and ‘lockdown’, under which movement is severely restricted.”

Shawn Turner, spokesman for the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, emailed: “This is absolutely wrong. We are not aware of any actionable intelligence indicating that an attack on the U.S. Mission in Benghazi was planned or imminent.”

The Drudge Report gave the story banner, red-type, siren treatment, with a photo of President Barack Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton: “PAPER: U.S. WARNED OF EMBASSY ATTACK BUT DID NOTHING.”
